The Original O'l Farts Club.

[jokerman]

Good Morning All (OF's):

Well, we cancelled the late afternoon's special buffet in favor of tofu, broccoli, brown rice, and bagels with a german blue cheese. We are going to bump our oyster and crab leg buffet into a New Years Eve celebration instead. Looking foward to getting onta a jet plane soon afterwards. With a full fat belly from a few days before.
More and more I am thinking about pulling the plug on my late stage career. As discussed before, I have no desire or need for a yacht, and really don't know what to spend the more than I need on. Perhaps like Boo's future situation.

Wishing each and every one of you, a pleasant morning, wonderful day, and outstanding evening.
I am currently pretty tied up with projects and work, so wanted to start with a daily check in hello.
Today is Thursday, and one day closer to the weekend on Friday. Will be glad for the break. TGIT!!

TGI T-Day Today! See you all tomorrow (again)! :

You as well,
All I have been thinking of is oysters and a nice crab sauce with a nice pasta.
I hold you to blame

How many of ya'll old farts remember fire proof Christmas tree flocking in the hoary days of yore?

We had a big bag of it when I grew up.
My Father was plmg Htg and electric and did service for a oil company too.
We used it to seal the stack from the boiler . Mix it by hand.

Where are you going on the jet plane Cola? Your bump of buffet plans will be a nice way to end the year and start the next one.

we are gonna have a wind event today , 40-50 mph gusts with rain and some local flooding

winds coming out of the west , right down the Straight of Juan De Fucka

we expect some trees in our woods will be blown over

mostly the small alder trees which is ok because we will use them for fence posts and rails

but yeah , sounds like an indoor day with copious amounts of coffee

Asbestos on every tree.

Asbestos on every tree.

It was the safe thing to do according to the science of the time!

The dispensary next door is out of bubble hash and ice hash. The kief they have is like 30%. What was the flower, like 10% THC???? I bought a disposable vape pen the other day...was live resin instead of distillate. The Hoff strain. I enjoy it. Bought another. Might buy a vape battery and buy the 510 live rosin cartridges they have. Or should I stick with disposable all-in-one? Hello people hope you're having great days

The best weed I've had in the last 30 years was a sativa. It wasn't frosty or stinky or dank. I'd guess the THC content wasn't as high as 95% of dispensary strains.

What made it so good was the length and quality of the high and seemingly no ceiling. None of my daily toker friends could get past 2 or 3 hits.

I believe there is a synergy between compounds and terpenes that makes 1 strain better than another in spite of THC content. If it was all about the THC those vape pens would produce more than a 20 minute high.

That's just my experience your milage may vary

How long does Alder last in the ground?

Yep............college is a complete and udder waste of everything.

The volume of stoopid in those few lines of print is quite impressive I will give it that.

I disagree! I played so much chess/back-gammon/Risk, did SO many drugs, banged SO many chicks, read SO many books...I even learned some-I can still recite an audit letter, i.e., we have preformed tests of your internal controls, financial statements are from management, we merely offer an 'opinion' as to their veracity, etc...
When reading financials, flip to the 1st note of the auditors statement. That's where they hide the important stuff.

Good morning folks
got up at 10.
havent done that for years.
Hope everyone had a good day for Christmas.
It was so funny watching the boys chasing each other around with the toy chainsaws.
The little girls were stunningly beautiful,
I thank the Lord I can play santa to the kids of the kids I have played before..
My SIL is finally retiring as a bio professor at 74.
My brother is as retired as a old atty can be.
I wanted to get him pjs that look like a suit.
Cant imagine wearing a suit all me life,
Im this way about wearing underwear

 

[Travis Kelcee]

Now that's surprising.

Partially Attributable to my photography skills, but still not pretty to look at.

For now I'll rank it #2 in potency out of the 40+ dispensary strains I've tried

 

[jokerman]

I lost my faith in doctors long before covid.

I always think about that old Carlin joke Somewhere using the process of elimination is the worse doctor. And someone has an appointment with him tomorrow.

After the operation they give baby boys 1 day old me too.
After the Dr did that ,I didnt walk for 12 months.
I dont blame you

 

[OleReynard]

Most of our meds come from China……

Mexico was the hook up

I want some of that…..

Looks slippery

Sometimes I like slippery

Composite decking like Trex makes a great alternative to an ice rink in the winter months.

and almost unwalkable when baked in the sun

isn’t that synergy called something like the “ entourage effect “ ?..

And refused to talk to them that whole time.........................

So, did you get what you wanted for Christmas. Every once in a while you get a special gift that you will use, wear or cherish for a long time. I got that special gift last night. Wasn't expensive but it was ME. I am wearing it now and it will be part of me almost every day in the years to come. Hoping everybody here got a gift like that.
